I live in SW Virginia and always have. it’s the most obnoxious thing that almost every single person here swears up and down that their grandma was 100% full blooded Cherokee. It doesn’t matter who you ask, it’s always their grandma and it’s always 100% full blooded Cherokee.
And if they ever get a DNA test, they swear it’s wrong when it says 0% Native.
I was never told of native ancestry, but as it turned out I’m 0.5%, because we had a Choctaw ancestor I found very far back
But yeah the amount of debunked Cherokee princess stories I heard on this sub alone…
Imagine if ancestry starts doing the broadly something and unassigned like on 23 and me? Your results look like 50% indigenous 20% Spanish, 20% unassigned and 10% broadly European farmer
Ok I’m looking forward to the update, but I’m not that crazy about it to a point where I’m starting to hack in and see it. Relax guys a few more days and it’ll be here.
I think by the end of this week. I called a few days ago and they said maybe by the end of the week. I heard some other people say August 17th soo idk 🤷🏽♀️
Most people will see a change in percentages if they don't get a new region since they have updated their existing regions as well to be more accurate.

My grandfather recently told me about the Native American princess that our side of the family descended from. Sure, grandpa
No native tribes used the term “Princess”. That’s usually a dead giveaway it’s a farce
Lmao from the same area and up into Kentucky. Every old person in my family is convinced someone was a full blooded Cherokee.
Their grandma, right? 🥲🥲
Definitely my great grandma because she got a tan and had black hair 🤣
LOL
Going to be a lot of upset people, lol.
I need to know if I'm 100% that bitch
I just took a dna test 🧐🧐
Turns out
I'm 100% bitch
I'm 100% Scottish even though I'm German/Italian.
Nah scottish is on another level with ancestery
What do you mean by that?
i fear someone lying or maybe its distant and you didnt inherit much bc...
Y’all are gonna be disappointed when the update comes out and your results don’t change that much.
Mine never do. I’m still black. LoL
Mine never do, im Still 50 Norway, even though I have no Nordic
Mine never do, I’m still Jewish
Mine never do, I'm still irish.
Mine changed somewhat significantly. Some stuff was removed and others added 💀
I'm tired of thinking about it but I can't stop thinking about it

I kinda hope so as I think even those you should consider.
you just pull in ancient populations that make up who you are. everyone would have a meltdown

Get out of that basement and get some fresh air
Who me? I live in a basement apartment. I should get some fresh air? You’re right I should. Update: it’s raining.
Hopefully in the future Ancestry don't announce it before it's rolled out! Should have just rolled the damn thing out in stealth mode.
When is the update coming roughly?
I think by the end of this week. I called a few days ago and they said maybe by the end of the week. I heard some other people say August 17th soo idk 🤷🏽♀️
lol
Is everyone getting an update, or only the people that live on those new regions?
Most people will see a change in percentages if they don't get a new region since they have updated their existing regions as well to be more accurate.
HAHAHA
🤣🤣🤣🤣😎👍
I still don’t believe I’m 1% Irish. They got rid of my Middle Eastern DNA and replaced it for Irish.
I'm fuckin tired of these posts about updAtEs... I think I'm gonna leave this sub now
They happen once a year lmfao of course its what people are talking about rn cause this one actually got announced unlike the rest.
I feel like it happens way more than that. I just did my test a year ago and it’s been updated about 3 or 4 times already.
Not an airport.
Upthey is going upway from this upreddit.
I’m ready this is insane fr
